    I contacted Ruby Tuesday's through their website. Here is the response from guest relations. For the record, my question was, "Do you accommodate a gluten-free diet?" You'll see from the response that they refer to 'potential allergic reactions' and go on to talk about 'allergens.' Clearly RT's is not clued in to the plight of the celiac... _________...

    I am a living example of 'dormant' celiac coming to life. I did not start showing symptoms until age 49 and was healthy until then. I blame the onset to stress.

    What are Canadian laws about cross contamination? I have a box of Nature's Path Organic Honey'd corn flakes that were made in Canada, but I bought them in the states. There's 'gluten free' labels all over it, but when you read the ingredients panel it says 'produced in a facility that contains peanuts, tree nuts, soy & wheat.' Is there a gluten...

    Are we talking about loose tea or tea in bags? I love English tea and have not given up tea drinking in the few weeks I've been gluten-free. I drink non-flavored Tetley in bags. Do the bags contain gluten?

    I'm new to gluten-free and am a bit wary to eat at a restaurant for a while. My nephew's birthday dinner is in a few days at Ruby Tuesday's. I'm wondering what your experience has been with it. I've never been to one. Thanks.

    Food Supply

    little-c posted a blog entry in little_c's Blog

    I've only been at this gluten-free 'diet' (or rather 'lifestyle') since April 7th. That's about three weeks. Last week was a challenge. I had extra appointments and evening events and skipped dinner a few nights because of them. There was food at a couple of the events, but I couldn't eat any of it. I was in too much of a rush to pack my own, so I just...

    Dietician Visit

    little-c posted a blog entry in little_c's Blog

    Another milestone in the journey into celiac world... Last week I visited the dietician as part of my post-diagnosis follow-up. (I was diagnosed on 4/6 of this year.) I was lucky. The dietician didn't know a thing about celiac. I knew more than she did just by doing research on this site and others and by shopping a couple of times for gluten-free...

    Anyone out there have a gluten-free Yorkshire pudding recipe?? Not sure if that something that's adaptable to gluten-free, but it just occurred to me that I won't be able to eat it anymore. boo hoo

    Hello whattodo: I'm newly diagnosed and am lucky that the doctors caught me early in the process. I suspect my disease was triggered by the increased stress I've been experiencing during the last year. Anyway, my experience is a bit different from yours, as my symptoms weren't that severe. However I share the same fearful anxieties about what the...

    Thanks to everyone for your input. The info you provided will help me explain all this to those people in my life who are trying to understand the new me. This message board is a life saver. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm, haggis...

    I'm newly diagnosed and have been reading about the cross contamination issue in food that's cooked in the same oil. Let's say that I want to deep fry my chicken wings in oil that was also used to fry breaded fish? Why is cross contamination an issue when the temperature of the oil is so high? Also, I've been told that I should throw out my old tupperware...

    Did anyone hear Sheryl Crowe's suggestion to save the earth this past Earth Day?? We should all use only ONE square of toilet paper when using the loo. Obviously, she doesn't know about celiac! Sorry, Sheryl, I can't help you on that one!

    If you've read my previous blog, you know that I'm newly diagnosed. I'd like to hear from others on how you handled telling co-workers about your condition. Or, did you choose not to tell them because it's none of their business. I chose to tell mine because I've been at the same job for 12+ years and know them very well. I had a birthday coming...

    Mosaics: Thanks for the advice. I have two siblings and have already encouraged them to be tested. I'll be taking my kids in soon, too. I am the first in my family to be diagnosed, so if anyone else has it, they don't know it.

    This is my first post in the gluten-free forum. Please bear with me while I get familiar with the controls. (in case it posts twice or something.) I was diagnosed with celiac disease ten days ago. I was completely blindsided by the diagnosis. It was discovered during a series of tests I had for a routine physical. I also have hypothyroidism (underactive...
